Balance

Due to the slow cast speed of Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Ethereal Knives". Please choose only one of the following ids:
WraithEtherealKnives - Deals (192-692) to (288-1038) Physical Damage, Deals 15% less Damage, 25% reduced Cast Speed, 25% increased Projectile Speed, Fires 9 additional Projectiles (page)
MonsterEtherealKnives - Deals (24-625) to (36-937) Physical Damage, 20% less Cast Speed, (0-25)% increased Projectile Speed, Fires 9 additional Projectiles (page), we have made it cast 25% faster. Its damage has been reduced by 20% to compensate. We have reduced its mana cost so that it costs the same per second as before. The Rogue Exile Ash Lessard and the Corrupted Area boss Haviri, Vaal Metalsmith are also affected by this change.

Most monsters now hit more frequently for less damage with Ball Lightning. Multiple projectiles from the same Ball Lightning volley use cannot simultaneously hit. Vessel of the Vaal has not been affected by these changes.

We have reduced the Dodge and Spell Dodge from Vaal Grace. The duration has been increased.

We have increased the damage of Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Summon Raging Spirit". Please choose only one of the following ids:
SummonRagingSpiritRoyale - Maximum 10 Summoned Raging Spirits, Base duration is 4.00 seconds, Minions deal 20% less Damage, Minions cannot Taunt Enemies (page)
AshwakerSummonRagingSpiritOnKill - Maximum 20 Summoned Raging Spirits, Base duration is 5.00 seconds, 25% chance to Trigger this Spell on Kill, Minions deal 18% more Damage, Minions cannot Taunt Enemies (page). At gem level 1 it is 21% higher, which scales down to no increase at gem level 8 and 9. The damage then scales up at higher levels to 66% more damage at gem level 20.

We have increased the spawn speed of the Stream of Monsters mod on ambush chests.
